Some would say, "Just give up! Be happy with who you are."
Others say, "You are just lazy. Try getting exercise and don't eat so much!"
I say, "People, it's not that easy! I do not choose to be unhealthy. Become educated."
Obesity is a disease. It's an addiction. It is the number one killer of Americans every year. If it was that easy to lose weight, the death rate would be a bit less, don't you think?
I have tried to lose weight in so many different ways. There isn't a diet out there I haven't tried. I will lose 30 pounds and gain back 50. I feel like a failure. It is the one thing in life I can not conquer. Trust me when I say, I don't enjoy being fat. I just want to be healthy.
I have decided to revamp my weight loss journey. I am getting older and unhealthier. I want to be around to see my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. It is time for drastic measures. Stay tuned for more about my revamping.
If we are facing in the right direction, all we have to do is keep on walking.
